Regime Change In Cuba...
Could someone please explain to me why in the world the American people are willing to travel thousands of miles to bring freedom to people, yet we tolerate oppression in our own front yard. I am pleased with the prospect of true freedom for the people of Iraq, and more so, for the symbolism of a truly democratic Arab nation in the Middle East, but why is it that we continue to do nothing about Castro? What deal did we cut with this guy in the past that has kept our government from actively pursuing the liberation of the Cuban people? We send professional baseball teams down there to play against Cuban teams instead of pressuring Castro to free the Cuban people. Despite what is called “pressure” from the U.S. government against Castro’s dictatorship, as recently as this month, dissidents that are suspected of talking to U.S. diplomat James Cason have been arrested. It is time for America to use diplomacy, pressure from our allies around the world, and economic sanctions to remove Castro’s dictatorship.
